Sri Lanka's tourism can recover, but it will depend on steps the government takes to improve stability.

Officials inspecting the Shangri-La hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka, following the Easter Day attacks on April 21.

The United States, Britain, Australia, India and Israel have all warned their nationals against visiting, while the Netherlands is organising a special flight to evacuate hundreds of Dutch tourists. But with armed guards now a fixture in some Colombo hotels and cancellations flooding in after the carnage unleashed by coordinated suicide attacks, Samaraweera must work out a rescue plan for establishments now facing ruin.

“It should recover,” he added, “obviously it depends on the steps the government takes to improve stability.” “Typically, countries that suffer isolated IS-style attacks see tourism recovering within one-to-two years, as long as root causes are addressed and security measures taken are well communicated,” the minister said.
